An assessment of models for flow-enhanced nucleation in an n-alkane melt by molecular simulation
Flow-enhanced nucleation of the crystal phase under shear and uniaxial extension for a monodisperse melt of n-pentacontahectane (C150H302 or C150) chains was studied by nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulation. The resulting acceleration in the crystal nucleation rate was correlated with macrosc...
